Blame It On Cain

Once upon a time, I had a little money


Government burglars took it along


Before I could mail it to you


Still you are the only one


Now I can't let it slip away


So if the man with the ticker tape, he tries to take it


Well, this is what I'm gonna say





(CHORUS) Blame it on Cain


Don't blame it on me


Oh-oh, oh, it's nobody's fault


But we need somebody to burn





Well, if I was a saint with a silver cup


And the money got low, we could always heat it up


Or trade it in


But then the radio to heaven will be wired to your purse


And you can run down the waveband


Coast-to-coast, hand in hand


Bad to worse, curse for curse


Don't be dissatisfied, so if you're not satisfied





(REPEAT CHORUS)





I think I've lived a little too long on the outskirts of town


I think I'm going insane from talking to myself for so long


Oh, but I've never been accused


When they step on your face, then wear that good-look grin


I gotta break out one weekend before I do somebody in


But every single time I feel a little stronger


They tell me it's a crime, well, how much longer?





(REPEAT CHORUS)





Blame it on Cain,


Oh-oh, oh, please don't blame it on me


It's nobody's fault


But it just seems to be his turn
